Spam emails associated with this site?? .

[Isopedella]

Just thought I would throw this out there. as i saw another post on those spam e-mails.
Infections, you have cash to collect yadi ya.

I hardly got any those in the past.
Long term member of several bike sites. Talking decades here. Touring , ADV, Classic and Trumpie ones for instance.
Nil or next to nil spam emails.

I have noticed since I joined up here. All of a sudden im getting quite a few every day now.
Suspect it may have something to do with this site possible.
I'm saying possibly may be associated with this site??
Possibly someone has managed to filtrate and get e-mails possibly. Dunno.

Dont click on them.

Not to my knowledge. I usually get zero junk e-mails.

[Isopedella]

Great. Me too up to a short time ago.
I just threw it out there as that changed about the time I joined up here.

Um. I dont think I said its coming from here, but started when I signed on here or there about the dates. There is a difference.
Things like
Your computer has a massive virus , won money, hello Isopedella you have credits ..

Caught in the spam folder and total crap for sure.

May very well be a coincidence. Dunno
Just I thought I would see if anybody else is suddenly getting these in the last 6-8 weeks or so.
Only coming to my dedicated forums e-mail address.

You sure did say that in your header. Others have responded they are not getting any from this site. Well good luck.

[Isopedella]

Ah, so i reads.

Ment since about the time I joined.

I guess its good its not site related as it seems to be only me.

[Azbronco]

Sorry--I'm not getting any spam like you describe. Maybe check with your e-mail provider as sometimes they update filters and something goes wrong, allowing spam to get through.

Followed by question marks.

Let's let this ride folks.

Sometimes we just hit the jackpot.

I get over 40 spam emails a day usually. Nothing changed in the last few months for me.

[Saluda]

No issue with me.

Until about 60 days ago I was receiving about 50 emails per day. None were associated with this site and most were spam. I began methodically unsubscribing from each and every one of them. It took some time and effort on my part but I was rewarded by eliminating the spam. Now, I receive virtually no spam emails and when a new one pops up I unsubscribe from it immediately. I doubt that this site is the source of your spam problem but I do know how to eliminate them. They are a pain in the rear.

From the other spam thread.

Top Tip - when buying online, make a fake/ alternate email address and use this (you'll still be able to use track and trace) but spam will be much less, stops your email inbox getting cluttered with all these spam emails.
Internet shops are notoriously famous for selling email addy's.

I think you nailed it.
Picked up my new to me Spyder. Bought some bits and joined up here . All around the same time.

So I have set up a special e-mail addy for selected stuff.

Thanks for the tip.
